As some of you know, I am in fairly regular contact with the club. Emails
have been exchanged this weekend regarding the frenzied speculation about Martin
Jol and I have been asked to post the followingQuote:
Andrew, as I know you are always in the chatroom, can I
provide
you with the current position please.Re Ramos, Klinsmann etc - We
are not
negotiating with any managers about the replacement of Martin Jol at
this time.
We are an ambitious club and it is a realistic ambition that we
should look to
CL qualification, so anything that looks like we may not make
it is bound to
lead to speculation and we fully expect that. No manager's
future is decided on
one or two games and it is insulting to suggest that
this board would do that.Re
Martin and Damien - they have a good working
relationship - the football
management board works - no player comes into
this club that Martin doesnt agree
to - it would be ludicrous to suggest
that money would be spent on players
Martin did not favour and whom he would
not then play, Damien has brought talent
to the club with Martin's approval
- and we would not have players like Berbatov
and Bale without him to
mention but two (there are obviously many more).Re left
position - always
difficult as evidenced by the fact that the majority of prem
teams
(Liverpool a notable exception) play a right footer on the left. We have
Lennon, Malbranque (who played a blinder on the left yesterday) Bale and
Keane.
So we have many options and yet we will still look as depth is a key
factor of
the squad.Please let me know if any rumours running amok that I
have not
answered here - will be happy to! best regards,
EndQuote
I will be posting it elsewhere, but wanted to put it on SC first. This
comes from someone who is on the Spurs' board.Please do not be petty and argue
over this as if it were some titbit of transfer ITK information. It isn't. You
can take it to the bank. The club is not about to sack Martin Jol. Please calm
down.
